Guy rented small cottage near the
suburbs of the city, and took his sister
Hilda with him.
DIR. Ellison had kindly invited her
to make his house her home, but she
refused to leave Guy.
For more than six months he had
endeavored to support himself and her
upon the uncertain fees of the legal
profession.

when he returned home from office, 81

Time passed on, and ''gentle spring
ethereal mildness came," for May ap-
peared with cher crown of verdure'
and her beauteous blossoms.
The wedding of Harry and Belle
took place at little village church
near 'Moss- side" and Mr.. Grahame
surprised the bride by presenting her
with Il check for a large amounr.
1t was Harry's intention to have
Guy act rs groomsman at his we'd
ding, but on account of his friends re-
cent loss, he was disappointed, and
had to select some one else to serve in
his place. Nellie was. of course, the
bridesmaid, and this arrangement suit
ed her exactly.
As Guy was still warmly attached
to Harry-who had lbeen a true friend
to him through all his troubles-he
did not forget to send him suitable
present on this eventful day.
Col. Carroll, since his wife's death,
had never been the same man; his
health began to fail rapidly, and he
was soon confined to his bed. GUY at
| tended TO his business as far as he was
able, anl Hilda nursed him during his
sickness.
One bright June morning, when the
birds were singing gayly without, and
Nature herself was smiling on the
beauteous earth, different scene was
presented in the Carroll house, for
sorrow and gloom reigned within its
walls, as Col. Carroll had just breath
ed his last.
After his death it was found that he
was insolvent, us during this last year
he had entertained Congressional as,
pirations, and had spent Il considera-
ble amount in endeavoring to secure a
nomination. which he doubtless would
have gained had he lived till the fol-
lowing September. His wife's last
sickness had also incurred much ex-
pense. and his house had now to be
sold to satisfy his creditors.
Mrs Carroll had been anxious to see
her husband prominent among public
men, us she knew he had unquestiona-
bic talents, and also thought if he ev-
er reached Congress it would increase
his law practice, but had no idea that
he would spend such IN amount to at
tain his object. Therefore he had a
greater incentive to accomplish this
end.
After the funeral rites had been OBJ
served Guy aftectionately kissed Hilda,
and said:
eve are all that is left of the fami-
ly now, and should be doubly dear to
each other, Remember, little sister,

nearly naked, and the ground was
strewn with fallen leaves, that had
withered beneath the Autumn sun.
In the oak aud hickory trees, the
gray squirrels could be seen as they
leaped from bough to bough, and anon
the fallen leaves would rustic as a
hare bounded through the woods.
The streams presented dark ap-
pearance, as they ghded onward in

pleasure We can call attention TO the
work of the above named gentleman just
closed at Trinity Methodist Church. For
Two weeks, morning ana evening, he has
preached eloquent, instructive and spirit.

Under his preaching many have been led
TO confess Christ aud TO unite with the
church, while scores OF others, under his
plain, practical instruction, have been
confirmed and established IN the faitl of
the gospel OF Christ, With one voice those
who have attended the services commend
him to the people OF God everywhere as
an eloquent, earnest and logical teacher
OF the doctrine Of Jesus Christ. He gro ws
upon his congregations with every
service. He bears with him
to whatever field he may 90

The Great Tie Problem Forcing It,
self Forward.


"Tnere is scarcely any problem in rail-
road matters" said prominent railroad
contractor 10 q MORNING NEWS reporter
day or two ago, shat promises to give
more trouble in its solution than the
question OF ties. AT the rate that the
forests are disappearing in this country it
would seem that within ten years we
shall have practically exhausted all the
timber available for railroad tics,
and then what shall we do? A Hmm
dred minds have been turned 10 the sub
ject in this country and abroad, but
as yet satisfactory substitute Tor the
common wooden ties has not come into
use. Steel, glass, Dapier mache and other
material have been tried without salts
factory results, aud unless something is
found before long, railroad meI will be
in predicament. The waste of timber
in railroad building in this country has
been enormous.
The inventor who will furnish good
substitute for the wooden tie will place
mankind under great obligations, and
should make a great deal OF money out of
1t. The chief cause Oh the wooden tie
wearing out is the cutting in of the rails
due to the motion under pressure of pass
ing trains. To meet this wear one man
proposed inserting hard wood blocks in
Jne sou Ties, out JnlS was l0und to sour
the soft timber and hasten the decay of
the tie. Another scheme is to put plates
of iron under the rails, IN this way en-
largng the bearing surface Of the tie sub
iect to pressure.
Engineers in Asia find themselves
confronted by difficulty not experienced
here. In that country the ties not only
decay quickly from the usual effects of
exposure to the atmosphere, but insects
eat them just as the toredo eats tim Der Ia
the ocean. The subject is Of extreme
Importance, and must be met in the I'm
mediate future"

Kiernan's Wall Street Summary has
been advised OF a serious error in the
statement that in the construction of the

pretty Ialr profit on an ordinary invest
ment.

WILL. ENFORCE THE LAW.
THE SOLICITOR GENERAL AND
THE MAGISTRATES.

The Solicitor VIII stand by his Con
strnction OF the Statutes and WIN
Prosecute the EIrst Violation that IL
Brought to his Notice-Points Upon
Which the Magistrates Counsel and
the Solicitor Agree.
Solicitor General Fleming G.. duBgnon
was asked yesterday if his construction
of the law had undergone any change
since reading the opinion which the mag
istrates obtained in reference to their
costs. He replied thai he thought it
would have been better, perhaps, had
those Justices OF the Peace who rely upon
the opinion of their attosneys published
1t. In the interview he SAID:
THE opinion was submitted to me, and
ne now recall it its authors agree with
my construction of the law in every par
ticular except as TO the right to charge
ana collect IS for drawing bonds. My
construction OF the act of 1874 is that this
charge can only be made when bond is
taken after an examination for appear
Rnce at the superior or City Court The
advisers of the magistrates cOnstrue the
act to mean that the charge can legally
be made whenever bond ls taken,
whether il be for an appearance before
appearance at the court having final Ju-
TisdIction Of the otfense charged. With
out attempting to argue the question, |
etlll think my construction correct one,
and VIII adhere to 1t.
"That the magistrates have no right to
charge tor issuing warrant. there can
remain no doubt, under the opinion which
they requested and received.
'As to their special powers to settle
pertain cases, i understand that two OF
the three memOers of the bar who adj
Vised them expressed grave doubts as to
their right to settle or permit to be settled
any criminal case, the third giving it as
his opinion that cases in which imprisOn-
ment could not be imposed might be set
tied before the magistrate | can recall
but two Otfenses OF this latter nature in
the whole penal code.
"My views. as already expressed, are,
that in a criminal case no costs can be
collected by the magistrate, except So for
drawing an appearance bond after an
examination is had.
"There is no law or semblance OF au-
thority for constable to charge or collec
any costs until after final conviction.
''The public seems to be interested in this
matter and hence l desire to be clearly
understood. OF course | may be wrong,
but until the court 80 decides, shall en-
force my construction OF the law. ANY
instance brought to my notice, wnen this
construction is violated. will! be promptly
indicted and then the matter can be
finally settled"

THE LABOR QUESTION.
The Policy OF the Centrars New
Management.


Five or six months ago considerable
comment wss caused by the report that
the Contra! railroad had changed its
policy In regard to tue employment of
white lahorers. n was said that the
management had d cided to give colored
applicants the preference for all suoordi-
nate positions IN the shops and on the
road.
The company's principal reasons were
understood to be economy and ease Of
management. The cOlortd wOr6men
could be obtained for less money, and it
was believed would not be SO apt to
strike as white workmen. A good many
vacancies were filed by coIored apo H.
cants, and the Knights of Labor and the
Firemen's Brotherhood were much eX-
creased over the move.
When President AleXander's friends got
control of The company month ago,
he learned Of good many complaints
it is SAID, against the policy naugurated
under his predecessors.
The colOred tram hand appeared to be
the greatest cause of complaint. He was
Objectionable TO the travelling pub
lie and to the ladies in particular,
who preferred to be- helped IN and
out OF coaches by white men. The new
management concluded that it would be
test to graduate It's own conductors, and
as the average Colored train nand was not
regarded as good material for promotion,
1t was resolved to go back to the old plan
and give the preference TO the whites. 1t
is reported that the change of policy will
extend to the other dc parLments.
